Charging Station Furniture

Never go looking for an outlet again

More than ever before, we are using devices that need power. From laptops to cell phones, transportable gaming systems to smartwatches, there is no end to essential devices that we take with us on a daily basis. And the worst feeling in the world is when you get that low battery warning.

But that doesn’t need to be a concern any longer.

Not only is it important to include device-friendly charging options in outlets, but the next leap in charging convenience is to put the outlet where your patrons won’t have to go searching for it.

That’s why our team here at Agati prioritizes integrated power solutions into all of our charging station furniture. Interested in how this could fit in your space? Get in touch today!

Charging Right Where It’s Needed

When personal devices first hit the scene, outlets were fairly scarce. People would huddle around outlets and set up a temporary work area while they got some juice, creating unnecessary obstacles for other patrons.

Today, there are 2.5 billion cell phone users by comparison to just 11 million in 1990. And that’s not counting other personal devices! The option to not consider charging station furniture when designing your space is long gone.

People need and want to charge their devices right where they are sitting.

A Convenience That Shows You Care

For many spaces, charging station furniture is not an official requirement. However, society is becoming more and more reliant on our devices. We not only use them to get around but, for many, that laptop is how they make a living or study. And the difference between a convenient charging option and a low battery warning with no outlet in sight could determine whether they meet that deadline or not.

The realization that they never have to ask “Where is an outlet?” shows them that they are valued. You have already thought through what they may need and offered them comfort and the security of knowing they will always be connected while they are in your space.

Easy-Access Charging Station Furniture

No one wants to have to relocate just to power up their device again. When the power source is across the room with no seating in sight, someone has to decide if they want to risk losing power completely or if they want to sit on the ground or find a chair to pull over.

Instead of totally disrupting your patron, why not let them keep their workflow steady without inconvenience? Public spaces have to meet a wide variety of needs today, and because of that, should offer charging station furniture for everyone who utilizes the space.

Efficient Spaces. Focused Work.

You’ve designed your space in a particular way and considered how patrons will engage with that space. That means that you’ve planned areas for people to navigate through the space and areas for people to study, work, or wait.

At Agati, we’ve studied human behavior and kept that in mind when designing our charging station furniture. People have a desire to feel safe and connected. For many, that connection and security is tied up in their devices. We use our phones to talk to our loved ones, get the address for our errands, and keep ourselves from boredom. When we are at risk of losing that connection, we’ll start to behave in unique ways to keep it.

If you’ve ever seen a charging cord strung across walkways or precariously dangled off a table, you’ve seen this firsthand. This can not only pose a danger to other patrons, but it can drastically change the way people interact with your space.
